DESCENDANTS  OF  WALTER  HAFNES  AND  PETER 
NOYES,  OF  SUDBURY,  MASS. 


The  following  facts  were  obtained  for  the  greater  part  from  a 
copy  of  an  old  manuscript,  the  original  of  which  was  written  by 
John  Haynes  (b.  1684)  describing  the  families  of  his  great  grand- 
parents Walter  Haynes  and  Peter  Noyes,  who  came  to  this  country 
together  and  located  in  Sudbury.  This  was  written  later  than  1772, 
since  it  gives  that  date,  and  was  probably  prepared  when  the  writer 
of  the  original  was  nearly  90  years  of  age.  The  manuscript  was 
found  among  the  papers  of  his  grandson  Samuel  Haynes  (b.  1737) 
by  the  latter's  grandson  Wm.  F.  Haynes,  and  a  copy  was  made  by 
his  cousin  Clark  Lewis  Haynes  (b.  1807)  the  grandfather  of  the 
present  writer,  Frederick  Haynes  Newell. 

Savage's  Genealogical  Dictionary  gives  many  of  the  more  impor- 
tant of  these  names  and  dates,  and  a  comparison  shows  a  remarkably 
close  agreement  in  details.      The   old   manuscript,   however,    gives 
much  information  of  the  fourth  generation   and  children   succeeding 
— facts  not  otherwise  recorded  so  far  as  has  been  ascertained.       For 
historical   narrative   concerning  Walter  Haynes,   Peter  Noyes  and 
their  sons,  reference  should  be  made  to  the  History  of  Sudbury, 
Mass.,  by  Alfred  Serano  Hudson,  published  by  the  town  in  1889. 
1.     Walter1  Haynes  was  born  in    England  in    1583,  in   the   town   of 
Sutton,  Mancleville,  county  of  Wilts.*     He  also  owned  a  house  and 
out-buildings  in  the  village   of  Shaston,  situated   in    the   island  of 
Purbeck,  in  the  south-eastern  portion    of   Dorsetshire.       He,   with 
family  and  servants,  arrived  in   Boston  in   1638,  in  ship  Confidence 
(see  Savage,  also  Register  vol.  ii.  p.  108).     In  the  same  ship  came 
Peter  Noyes,   yeoman,   of  Penton,  county  of   Southampton,   with 
children  and  servants. 

AV alter  Haynes  was  a  linen  weaver,  and  was  55  years  of  age 
when  he  came  to  this  country.  About  a  year  after  his  arrival,  he 
with  others  removed  from  Watertown,  having  obtained  a  grant  for 
a  township  named  Sudbury,  where  they  settled  Dec.  22,  1639.  He 
was  made  freeman  1640,  was  representative  in  the  years  1641,  1644, 
1648  and  1651,  and  was  one  of  the  Selectmen  of  Sudbury  for  ten 
years.  He  died  Feb.  14,  1665,  aged  82.  (See  Whitman's  History 
of  the  Ancient  and  Honorable  Artillery   Company,    1842,  p.   97.)
